Get a Ref

So you need a ref for your rugby match — Here’s how you go about getting one from the Northern California Referee Society.

It is the home team’s responsibility to ensure that a referee is available for their games. All games – high school, collegiate, men’s 1st, 2nd, 3rd division, and women’s – leading to a national championship (i.e. all league games) require a USA Rugby certified referee.

During the regular season, the Referee Society has a master list of all games scheduled in Northern California and assigns referees to these games usually several days before the start of each month. If you have a game not on the schedule, notify Pete Smith.

Teams with an outstanding balance will not be assigned match officials until payment has been made in full.
